The Good Stuff, Vol. 68

Welcome to “The Good Stuff”, where we highlight positive news and ways that NAED employees and member companies go above and beyond to give back to their communities! If you have some “Good Stuff” that you would like to share with tED magazine, find out how below.

In this issue, we’re looking at Gordon Electric Supply.

KANKAKEE, Ill. — On Sunday, April 30th, representatives from Gordon Electric Supply awarded a $1,000 donation to the Joliet-based organization, All Herding Breeds Dog Rescue, an all-volunteer organization based out of Joliet, IL dedicated to caring and finding homes for hundreds of herding dogs.

The donation was part of a semi-annual company program that rewards a peer-nominated employee for their embodiment of the company’s core values:  reliability, compassion, teamwork, and resourcefulness. The winner chooses a charity to which Gordon Electric Supply will donate $1,000. The most recent employee honored with the Core Values Award is Crystal Benedict, Lighting Quotations Specialist at Gordon’s Mokena branch, who was recognized by coworkers for her reliability, teamwork, resourcefulness, and commitment to finding solutions for customers, coworkers, and manufacturing partners.

Pictured at the donation ceremony is Robin Carberry (seated) of All Herding Breeds Dog Rescue along with Crystal Benedict (front) and Dan Korthauer (back) representing Gordon. Also pictured are two of the dogs eligible for adoption: Anika (in Robin’s lap) and Benson (front).
